Check out the trailer for the new movie The Beautiful Truth, about the Gerson Institute and its organic, plant-based approach to healing cancer and other diseases. I was psyched to attend the opening in L.A. in November (thanks to my fabulous San Diego Thanksgiving with Lynne and co.), and hope to do some work for the organization and its warm and inspiring executive director, Anita Wilson, in the new year.
Max Gerson came up with his novel, nutritional approach in Germany in the 1920's. The mainstream, allopathic medical industry in the U.S. has been trying to discredit it every since. Why? Because there's no money to be made encouraging people to eat more fruits and vegetables! The "war on cancer" -- and heart disease, etc. -- is a multi-billion dollar industry in this country. Big pharma and big agriculture are big business.
If everyone quit eating chemical-covered food and feedlot meat, ate a natural plant-based diet the way Americans did 100 years ago, and quit taking all the drugs and vaccines our doctors/drug pushers are so quick to recommend (because they've been brainwashed by the pharmaceutical industry, which provides huge amounts of funding -- and control -- for their education and research), we'd be a lot healthier and see far fewer of the chronic illnesses that plague our population: obesity, diabetes, MS, CF, autism, Parkinsons, and of course CANCER.
That's the beautiful truth, as discovered by a 15-year-old boy who travels around the country exploring the connection between nutrition and health for a school (or homeschool) project. It's an eye opener.
Other good movies on this subject that challenge the way things are: Healing Cancer From the Inside Out; Eating: The RAVE Diet; and Food Matters. I like this quote in Food Matters: "One quarter of what you eats keeps you alive, and the other three quarters keeps your doctor alive."
Despite our quick and easy diets of cheap, abundant and convenient processed food, and despite the FDA's and USDA's shameful dereliction of duty as they feed at the industry trough, everyone knows the old adage -- and we also know in our hearts it's true: We ARE what we eat.
